Abstract

To Monsieur MottaSept. 24, 1924 ShaokwanMonsieur MottaPresidentFifth AssemblyLeague of NationsGenevaDear Sir:In view of Mr. Ramsey MacDonald's disquisitions on the in-dependence of Georgia and international peace and justice at re-cent sessions of the Assembly of the League of Nations, it may bepossible interest to the League to know that on Sept. 1st I protestedto Mr. MacDonald against the delivery to my government of an ul-timatum which threatened hostile British naval action in the eventof my government taking the necessary measures to suppress a re-bellion at Canton instigated by imperialistic and reactionary inter-ests. To this protest, Mr. MacDonald has not replied.I understand that his silence to mean that British policy in Chinawill continue to express itself in acts of Imperialist intervention insupport of counter-revolutionary activities against the nationalmovement which aims at the establishment of a strong and inde-pendent China.It is no wonder that after assisting rebels and reactionaries inCanton, Mr. MacDonald goes to Geneva to champion the cause ofthe counter-revolution in the Republic of Georgia in the guise ofan "honest broker" scenting Caucasian naphtha.
